I've been looking for a transcription of the bassline on this wonderful interpretation of Autumn Leaves but I've had very little luck on the internet, does anyone have it? I thought about trying to transcribe it myself, but that's a bit above my level, at least for learning it by ear

I'll give it a shot. We can compare notes.
Really? You're awesome, man!
However, I'm a VERY slow transcriber, especially for something for a genre I basically never played such as jazz.
If I will ever be able to nail it down you may be 100% sure that I'll share it, that's too good to be kept as a secret
It's great practice to transcribe. However, it's in this book- bill Evans trio 1959-1961. It's out from Hal Leonard. Love Scott Lafaro- my mime is him. If you in the northern md area happy to go over some with or you can sit in with my trio working on this project now.

Sorry to hijack this thread, but I just took a stab at interpreting this standard myself. It's nowhere near as cool as Bill Evans but I wanted to try reworking a jazz standard just like the cool kids 
I've always loved Paul Motian's playing on this track (and the whole album). He's so solid, really allows LaFaro and Evans to get out there and do their thing.

A casual perusal of the site shows no Bill Evans transcriptions as per the OP's request. Still, some good material.
Yeah, that was my point, there isn't Autumn Leaves here, but that's a great site nonetheless
